Word Twisters' Adventures

I was really excited to watch this when its costume fitting was announced because I really liked Jordan Chan in "The Duke of Mt. Deer 1998". However, I wasn't too thrilled with Charmaine Sheh pairing up with him and Michael Tse's mustache. Plus, the ratings in Hong Kong were really bad. Nevertheless, I still watched it because I'm a Charmaine fan and I really missed watching her after barely watching her in "The Drive of Life" so I gave it a try.

The first few episodes were nothing extraordinary or that interesting to continue, but I kept on watching to see if Jordan/Charmaine would save this drama. I'm glad I did because it got really interesting and funny when the Sharon Chan's case was introduced. It got even better after Charmaine and Jordan were forced to marry each other. Therefore, I absolutely love this drama and the ending wasn't too bad either; one of the better TVB endings lately. I think this drama is really underrated because it's really entertaining, funny, and witty (minus the beginning episodes and the last episode).

Charmaine Sheh: I thought she did a really great job in here; she was so cute and lovable! This is one of Charmaine's better ancient dramas. 5*****

Jordan Chan: He's great as usual in this comedic role but this role is a lot like the one in "The Duke of Mt. Deer 1998" so nothing surprising there. 5*****

Michael Tse: He was able to show two sides to his acting: serious/sad and funny/happy. And I have to say that he did an excellent job. He was hilarious when he started to speak English too. However, the mustache made him look really weird and perverted... 5*****

Sharon Chan: She shined in the beginning but kind of "died" off at the end. I felt she wasn't "evil and pitiful" enough; nevertheless, still a good performance. 4****

Suki Chui: This is my first time seeing her on screen and she was okay, not that great though. Throughout her case, her facial expressions made me think she was evil/have ulterior motives which is opposite of what her character is supposed to be: nice and really pitiful. 2**

Charmaine+Jordan: I love this pairing! They are adorable together and I couldn't get enough of them! 5*****

Charmaine+Michael: They were pretty cute together too so I felt really sad for them when they couldn't marry but Charmaine was cuter with Jordan! 3***

Michael+Suki: They were weird together and it was just awkward so I'm glad they didn't end up together, but it was kind of sad that she died and Michael ended up with nobody. 1*

Themesong by Jordan Chan: I initially didn't like it when I first heard it but it grew on me after watching the themevideo several times; it's pretty catching. It would be better if Jordan wasn't talking in the beginning though. 3***

Rating: 3.5*** I would watch this drama again.
